Speaking to Exiles Player, Terry Butcher has said that preparations are going well and that new signings are close.

In an interview with Exiles Player, Newport County manager Terry Butcher says that the close season preparations are going well and that he hopes to announce several new signings shortly. "It's going very well, we've made some good strides forward, plenty of positives, lots of people want to join Newport County which is very nice.

"We'll be in a position soon to make some announcements, I think they'll be announcements that will please the fans as well so it's very exciting.

Butcher says that he is relishing the task of recruiting a large number of new players "I'm not daunted by bringing in a brand new team" the former Inverness boss said "you speak to people and perhaps the expectation level isn't going to be too high because it's going to be a new squad together, and a new management team as well, everyone getting to know each other.

"But hopefully other teams will underestimate us, underestimate the quality that we're bringing in and the spirit of the players."
